What a great show!
The intriguing writing is complimented by visually interesting direction. strong images, good camera work and an eerie musical score. Not to mention very natural acting. We have strong women more messed up than their slightly more sensitive men, we have a young gay man way stronger than his closeted, popular "friend".
Refreshing to see the male/female relationship in a new light.
And there is a lot of horrible murder!
It's a great Whodunnit as well! Damn, you must check it out!
I wish this show a strong following and many more years on air!

Eyewitness is one of the best things on TV I would say. It's not something that has a lot humor and if you can't watch drama, probably not your show, which is okay. However, it's not a show that is gonna make you depressed to watch. It has a very good story line and plot, it is not simply just about Philip and Lukas witnessing the murder and struggling with not being able to tell, mostly because of Lukas being paranoid of people finding out he's gay. There are many plot lines in this, like a ex FBI agent (now Philip's foster mom and sheriff in a small town), a FBI agent with a sister in serious trouble, and of course the killer. So you aren't just seeing things from Lukas and Philip's eyes. The writing is not predictable and you will be surprised and entertained.
This isn't a show that is in poor LGBT taste, there aren't any gay stereotypes in this.
This cast is really great, despite the fact that most of these actors aren't known. everyone on the show does a amazing job, I really love what the actors who play Philip and Lukas are doing.

This show is perfect. I have heard from many young adults that it has changed their lives-- and it's only on the first season. This show is so entertaining and the audience feels drawn to the characters and can relate to them each in their own way. A strong, independent female lead police officer, real-life beautiful LGBTQ representation, coming out stories, crime and mystery, the struggles and real world problems that come along with being a foster child/trying to create a family bond.. This show covers it all. Watch if you have not watched yet. This show has the opportunity to become something big and help people all around the world. I hope it continues for many more seasons!! The outpouring of love for it on twitter and other social media sites proves that it should be continued...
Two teenage boys have a haunting secret. And one of them is the foster child of the sheriff of Tivoli--a small New York town. Her past is shrouded in secrecy and she is happy to live unobtrusively where crime is small-time. She, Helen, is the center of this suspenseful series that starts with a murder and spirals out of control.
Fortunately, Helen is played by Julianne Nicholson, who is eminently watchable. As she tries to juggle the demands of an alarming new case and the difficulties of fostering a teen whose mother is a junkie, she unexpectedly finds exhilaration in the gritty relevance of a "real" crime.
Shot with a muted color palette, "Eyewitness" feels shadowy and filled with ominous intent. The musical score is moody.
Even as the clues lead Helen into a wider story of corruption and crime, Helen is upbeat, bolstered by the support of her husband, Gabe (Gil Bellows. They are both veterans of "Ally McBeal) and her sense of accomplishment.
The rest of the cast is solid, including Tattiawna Jones as Camilla Davis, an FBI agent who is determined to control the case and thwart Helen's efforts.
This series is tightly written and manages to encompass many characters without feeling thin. I recommend it to anyone who likes suspense.

I've only watched one episode, but like what I've seen and am optimistic about the rest of the season. If you're a fan of Julianne Nicholson, she's the lead character. If you're not familiar with her work, you should be. In this series, she again plays a woman with a troubled past, a role she does extremely well.
The series in not the usual legal, police, or hospital action or drama show. There is a murder, but the focus seems to be more on the characters' lives, emotions, challenges instead of solving the crime. Don't be misled by the gay-bashing reviews. That's only one relationship, in addition to the sheriff and her doctor husband, the FBI agent, her undercover agent, and the undercover's wife, the sheriff and her deputy, ... you get the idea.
If you've enjoyed shows, as I have, like The Red Road, The Bridge, Top of the Lake, American Crime (the one with Regina King and Felicity Huffman), give this one a chance, too.
